Check-in May 15

It was the 15th of the month and given the possibility of arrivals, Caroline decided that something should be done to make new people a little more comfortable.

So she was sitting in the lobby, wearing a bright yellow sundress and surrounded by a riot of materials. Her feet were bare, as her sandals were lying off to the side, and her toenails were blue. She was creating Inn survival kits. There was a little pamphlet of explanations: people call the guy at the desk Daryl; yes,everything is free; no, you can't leave; just be firm about towels. A basket of sundries - snacks from the gift shop, sunscreen, guidebook, toothbrush etc. There was a towel, because obviously.

She considered adding a bottle of alcohol, but not everyone drank - she'd noticed at least a few of the current residents who didn't - and if they did drink TOO much, she didn't want to encourage it.

Maybe chocolate?

Caroline jotted down that as a note and resumed chewing on the end of her pen. The lobby door opened shortly thereafter and she looked up with a smile.

She was reading his mind. But she didn't believe in magic? "Okay, stop doing that. It's weird." It wasn't that reading his mind was weird. Z did it without spells. It was weird because he didn't know her. Also, "It's also not safe." Vesh could reach through his thoughts and hurt her.

But she was being helpful, if strange, so he did tell her, "But I'd appreciate that. Thanks."

She looked down at her feet, hair falling in a dark curtain across her face and then after a long moment peeked over at him.

"Stopping is not an option." Another pause. "No off switch."

Then she was gone on silent (bare) feet to get him liniment. For horses. And possibly clean clothing. Should she have asked if he wanted food?
